Each stage is procedurally generated, and there are a ton of crates to break open as well as tiered chests scattered throughout them. However, if you’re feeling old school, there is always Militech, who makes your basic, run-of-the-mill type weapons that sacrifice special effects for more damage.Īnother great thing is that while it isn’t trying to be a rogue-lite, Arcadegeddon has incorporated some mechanics of the genre. Most manufacturers make guns with specific elemental effects like Infernal, for instance, who produces incendiary weapons. There is a wide variety of weaponry made by different manufacturers at your disposal, and they’re all incredibly fun to use. To put it simply, the shooting mechanics in Arcadegeddon are top-notch. Plug takes burning down the establishment to a whole new level in this boss battle with the CEO Scanning for Viruses… It’s rare when a game can sideline its story and deliver a solid gameplay experience but Illfonic manages to achieve that. That should not be taken as a complaint either as the gameplay is so much fun, the rewards for completing all of an NPC’s challenges feel that much better because it was fun to do them. It more of less serves as a function to drive you to achieve specific milestones and use certain weapons. What story that does exist, is silly and fun but it isn’t the main focus of the game. There are some cutscenes, and most of the dialogue is centered around the gangs asking you why they should help you out. Unfortunately, though, there’s not much in the way of a story. While you’ll usually be rolling through Arcadegeddon solo or with three other players, the world is full of quirky and goofy characters willing to aid Uncle Gilly, like the edgy ninja gang called Grim or rebellious Punks. In order to do this, you need to dive into Gilly’s game and cleanse it of the FFC’s presence. So, Gilly called in some family and the city’s local gangs to defend the arcade.Īs Plug, it’s up to you to help your uncle and prove your worth to these local gangs who are offering their help. The FFC being the bad guy and all, has caught wind of this and infiltrated the game in an effort to ruin it. In order to keep the FFC away from his arcade, Uncle Gilly has come up with a revolutionary new game in order to get new, loyal customers flocking to his arcade. Uncle Gilly’s arcade is the last of its kind, and the FFC is trying its hardest to take it from him. In Arcadegeddon, the world is ruled by mega-corporations, and (despite the name) the evil Fun FunCo is buying up everything and just plain ruining them. Platforms: PC, PS4, PS5, Xbox Series Calling All Gamers: We can all agree that Mega Corporations suck, right? Like, no one actually likes them or enjoys being a part of them unless you’re some rich, old white dude? Well, if you ever wanted to stick it to the men in charge while playing video games then, you should check out Arcadegeddon by Illfonic, the developer behind Friday The 13th: The Game and Predator: Hunting Grounds.
